Originally posted by Thequ1ckIsn't it a bit abstract to talk about the USA as an homogenous entity? As is well known, the economic interests at play directly concern a discrete group of plutocrats.
I'm not sure that the political motive in the US's case is so much greed any more than it is economic survival.
However, the US's current economic situation has unquestionably been brought about by greed.

Originally posted by Bosse de NageThere will be no war with Syria and Iran at this moment, unless these countries interfere militarily in Israel's efforts to remove Hezbollah from its Northern border ... and even in the latter case it is a big question whether the USA will intervene on their turn with ground troops in Israel's behalf.
